After the event, Cheng Guang did not linger at the original place and turned around to return to Duke Zhen's Mansion.
At this moment, he still didn't know how to face Qin Yanqiu.
Having just married, Cheng Shiyuan had orchestrated the death of Qin Yanqiu's brother, and her father, Qin Beifeng, was also on the brink of death.
Even if Qin Yanqiu was typically aloof by nature, she would not remain indifferent to her own father's death.
Looking back, a major reason Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, wanted Cheng Guang to marry Qin Yanqiu was to establish a connection with Qin Beifeng.
Even if something unexpected happened to Cheng Shiyuan in the future, having Qin Beifeng, a great general, meant that Cheng Guang could safely take over the banner of the Northern Expedition Army.
But now...
Qin Beifeng was a spy within.
Simply unreliable.
Qin Yanqiu's value for a marriage alliance was also greatly diminished.
